Funeral service operative Review

My role is a 'Funeral Service Operative' within the Coop group in particular 'Funeral Care'. My day to day role is as follows :- Driving funeral vehicles Maintenance / cleaning of the fleet, Preparing deceased, Preparing coffins, Taking deceased into our care from their place of passing , Transferring deceased, Attending funerals,

I've learnt the importance of team work . Being open minded and the willing to expect the unexpected .

The nvq was very intense but a great sense of achievement now it has been completed successfully . I enjoyed every aspect of it.

I feel extremely valued within the work place. We are such a small team and we are all valued very highly

The programme was very well structured. Meeting were never cancelled and my nvq assessor was brilliant

[This section of the comment has been removed by a member of the RateMyApprenticeship Team because it did not meet our site terms and conditions] She was friendly and highly professional and very helpful at all times .

My employer supports me all the time with it being my day job or my part time career

Really well. My wage is exceptional and we manage very well.

Not to use my nvq but joining the army as a reservist is my second career

Yes

It a great qualification to hold and to do it through work is even better

Keep on top of the nvq. You control it don't let it control you. Keep focused on it and it will be a great journey and once it's completed you can look back on it with pleasure with absence of achievement
